8. Five of you will put a hundred of your foes to flight, and a hundred of you will put to flight ten thousand, till your enemies fall before your sword.
9. I will look with favor upon you, and make you fruitful and numerous, as I carry out my covenant with you.
10. You shall eat the oldest stored harvest, and have to discard it to make room for the new.
11. I will set my tabernacle in your midst, and will not loathe you.
12. Ever present in your midst, I will be your God, and you will be my people;
13. I, the Lord, am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be their slaves no more, breaking the bars of your yoke and making you walk erect.
14. But if you do not heed me and do not keep all these commandments,
15. if you reject my statutes and loathe my decrees, refusing to obey all my commandments and breaking my covenant,
16. then I, in turn, will do this to you: I will bring terror upon you—with consumption and fever to dim the eyes and sap the life. You will sow your seed in vain, for your enemies will consume the crop.
